Mr. Pen- Sketch Pencils for Drawing, 14 Pack

These pencils are very nice, and for an incredible price. And who doesn’t love a good metal case with a squirrel on the cover? I even like the spelling of Pencils as “Penciles” on the box. Made me smile. Very happy with quality and range, though instead of an 8B, there was a second 10B. (One of the 10Bs looked like the cat got it). No worries! I have other 8B pencils. But you know what I loved the most? The nice thank you cards included in the pencil box. In a time when most Amazon orders are just thrown into a box and arrive with little packaging, this extra touch warmed my heart. I’d buy again. Thank you.

They're great for sketching, really smooth and a nice weight. They balance easily in your hand, and the lead doesn't break easily. Great gift for an artist! The different pencils are accurate, and provide a great variety of shades.

I am a 16 yo artist and have been using these since I was 15! Very reliable, I have used them in every piece, there’s so much range, and they are great to work with! Artist: Amiah Mathurin

Buy this one. Excellent quality and a complete set for basic sketching. This is the set i keep grabbing when I set down at my desk to relax

Works well for what it’s intended for.

I’ve never been disappointed with any product I’ve purchased from this company. The quality of everything I’ve ordered has always been great. The only reason I returned the pencil set was because the specifications for the supplies need for the project have changed. I was very tempted to keep it for a different project but wasn’t sure it will be needed. If it is, I’ll reorder it at that point. Don’t hesitate to purchase this pencil set. I highly recommend it!

This set is top notch,I have been comparing it to my Faber-Castels and there is just no...comparison. This set wins hands down. They glide....the HB and 2B in Faber-Castels are rough and in Mr.Pen they are smooth....

I was looking for very black graphite pencils. These were recommended somewhere in reviews. So I tried them. The Blackest ones are super black. They do smudge slightly with water but not water soluble at all. All of them held a point really well and sharpened in an electric Staples brand sharpener to a very fine point with no breakage at all. The pencils are quite slim and sometimes I need to reinsert them into the sharpener to trigger the auto sharpening. The hardest ones are great for texture. I tried them on 3 types of paper and got some snagging on cotton, vintage type of paper when using the hardest leads. I do love the hardest leads for textures most. The tin is so cute and very nice hinged lid. Love the squirrel graphics. The lettering and numbers on the pencil are very easy to read and I was so happy. No shiny silver or gold writing blaring in the light.

Great pencils for drawing different HB’s just what I wanted . Great price too would buy again . Lovely seller too

Super danke!!!

Bought this for my brother. This pencil set has a good range of hardness and softness, perfect for sketching and shading. The pencils feel nice to hold, and the quality is solid for the price. Great for both beginners and more experienced artists

These pencils are such a bargain! There is a distinct difference between each pencil, to enable a great range of tones. Unbelievable value and great pencils. Highly recommended.

These pencils are exactly what I was after. As someone who is learning to draw late in life (and yes, you can too) I wanted the variety of hardness options but didn’t want to break the bank when I haven’t even developed personally preferences yet. At the price, these are perfect… and I even appreciated the hand written note from the company founder in the tin. The pencils come pre-sharpened though to a profile I was unfamiliar with… better for shading especially. If you are picking this up to draw I’d recommend grabbing. Long point pencil sharpener if you don’t have one already!
